Reply to comment by Few-Belt-13 in 33 million kids vaccinated against polio in southern Africa by Boris740
Google does exist. Try using it yourself. Wild Polio was declared officially completely eradicated in the African continent and the ONLY Polio that still exists is vaccine-derived Polio. You can search "polio eradicated in africa" in your Google and see what comes up.
Edit: Because everyone is too lazy and just downvoting, here are sources the downvoters should find credible.
From the CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/polio/why-it-matters/africa-kicks-out-wild-polio.htm

Still stuns me that I'm paying more for broadband internet in the US but the base speed remains the same as it was 25 years ago. LOL DOWNVOTED BY SOME COMCAST BOOTLICKERS. Look at South Korea's internet speeds.

Can this case be used as precedent?

Reply to comment by somekennyguy in Tyler Perry to donate $2.5M to help older Atlanta homeowners by AmethystOrator
There are plenty of people struggling to pay rent with limited to no access to equity. If those people can't pay they end up homeless. Having a house to sell is a lot better than being homeless. The seniors in this discussion got a buyers market back in the day. Not sure why they should get it both ways. 🤷

More bullshit from Kennedy that’s been proven false. India only became polio free in 2014 and 1 in every 2.7 million doses results in vaccine associated polio…much better odds than not being vaccinated.
Google exists.

Mods either don’t care or no longer enforce sub rules. This thread is littered with cynical comments

Still a good start with the operation team. But yeah, I would like to see stuff like that as well. Maybe even build a city.

We have a "cure" for a cancer and people still don't take it
It's the HPV vaccine, that prevents infection from numerous papilloma virus strains responsible for cervical cancer and penis cancer, yet people don't vaccinated themselves because "my daughter will never be promiscuous and get HPV", or we "don't believe in that vaccine crap"

The way around that is to condition access to serving denser areas by also serving less populated ones. So if they want to be able to service the good areas they take their share of the bad ones.

Overview: The Contract was annulled (it seems) because Spectrum failed to uphold the initial end of the bargain by providing a service of a much lower quality than what the customer paid for. The contract only allowed for a limited reimbursement, and his internet service had been dogwater the entire time. Every possible fix kept pointing towards Spectrum as being the source issue as to faulty hardware or wiring. Essentially, the gentleman paid for Champaign and Caviar but was given Malt Liquor and Cornbread by Spectrum. Because Spectrum didn't uphold their end of the bargain by providing him with the Champaign and Caviar he paid for, the judge ruled that the contract was unenforceable. This has set a precedent that ISPs must either come through with the service quality the customer paid for, or face potential legal repercussions. While I know that there are businesses out there that still operate by the Henry Ford school of "best goods possible, lowest price possible, highest wages possible", alot of these companies will most likely condense their top service to urban areas and offer nothing but mid level to low service to more rural or out of reach areas, or require additional hardware purchases on the part of the customer to facilitate the delivery of top service to a rural area.

Calling that eugenics is such a reach.
